Snowflake wishes

Hello again, another xmas card for the box, it's never too early to start!

Today I was pleased that a previous card of mine was chosen at:

I was invited to guest at their next challenge:

I also noticed the Allsorts had a new challenge

Week 678 Anything but Birthdays

So, here's what I made with Snowflake Wishes.....

Stamped random snowflakes with blue, lavender and green, placed a blue mat underneath,

added the twine which had a strand of silver in it,

(I liked how it unravelled).

 

Added some silver rhinestones, then photographed it again with the sun shining!

I find both challenges are fabulous for inspiration and when you're stuck for a starting point.

Do check out their blogs!

Gift Card Holders for Rudolph Day

Happy Rudolph Day :)

(albeit a day late)

 I like to make this kind of thing to make money/ gift cards/ vouchers more special.

This is one of Mary Fish's ideas, quite simple to make.

It's a z fold, but the far left section becomes the pocket

The topper spans both layers, you can use any shape or topper.

Lots of paper has been used helping to reduce my paper mountain :)

You can use any punch to make a notch to make removal of the gift easier.

Here are just a couple of designs:

I later chose to make a simpler topper, with a red theme, and was surprised to find I preferred it!

You can design the inside any way to suit, leaving room to write your personal message in

So, which do you prefer?

I thought it would be nice to share these with the Rudolph Day Challenge

over on Scrappymo's Blog 

Happy Rudolph Day!

Snowflake Wishes simple stamping

These were inspired by Kim Price ......Handmadebykim.co.uk

Smoky Slate, Basic Grey, Pool Party, Highland Heather, Snowflake Wishes.

The Heather version....

Simple stamping, but wasn't so keen on my dark grey, 

so used some die cut snowflakes in white glimmer paper to tone it down.

I added some snowflake sequins after, to add some sparkle 

The Pool Party version....

Inside panels..........

Do some simple stamping today!
